Antonia Lukacinova, founder and Executive Director of the Sapphire Pegasus Business Aviation Awards, commented: “The category of Innovation in Business Aviation was the most popular this year, both in terms of the number of nominations and votes. This clearly demonstrates that business aviation companies are constantly working on improving their services, practices or technology”.

Volker Meissner, Deputy Chairman of BACA – The Air Charter Association, representing Chairman Richard Mumford (a Member of the Sapphire Pegasus Business Aviation Awards’ Advisory Board) at the Award Dinner, added: “It is fantastic to see innovation and creative ideas being rewarded by the business aviation community. The use of technology to help owners streamline processes for an efficient administration and utilisation of their privately owned business jets has to be of benefit to the whole industry. I congratulate My Sky on their award and wish them well with their future endeavours.”
